The former central midfielder and current Al Sadd boss released a statement to confirm that he was not feeling poorly but was currently self-isolating to ensure he did not infect others. Xavi has been heavily linked with a return to the Camp Nou in recent months amid speculation over the future of current boss Quique Setien.

Nigerian artist Adekunle Gold is a new father and has been bonding with his wife Simi as they assemble baby stuff. This member of Afrobeats royalty - he's literally from a Nigerian royal family - is married to Simi who also has a successful music career.

UN demands justice for aid workers killed in Nigeria

The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for the killing of four aid workers and a security guard in Nigeria's north-eastern Borno state. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has called on the Nigerian authorities to bring the perpetrators to justice.

The aid workers were kidnapped last month and their deaths confirmed earlier this week. It underlines the risks humanitarian workers face in north-eastern Nigeria. The region has seen more than a decade of violence from Boko Haram that has forced more than two million people from their homes and killed more than 30,0
